Intro: Am C ( x4 ) Verse 1: Am Weep for yourself, my man, C you'll never be what is in your heart. Am Weep little lion man, C you're not as brave as you were at the start. G Rate yourself and rake yourself, F Fmaj7 C take all the courage you have left. G Wasted on fixing all the F Fmaj7 C problems that you made in your own head. Chorus: Am F C But it was not your fault but mine, Am F C and it was your heart on the line. Am F C I really xxxxxx it up this time, G didn't I, my dear? Am Didn't I, my dear? Interlude ( x2 ): Am C Verse 2: Am Tremble for yourself my man, C you know that you have seen this all before. Am Tremble little lion man, C you'll never settle any of your scores. G Your grace is wasted in your face, F Fmaj7 C your boldness stands alone among the wreck. G Learn from your mother or else F Fmaj7 C spend your days biting your own neck. Chorus: Am F C But it was not your fault but mine, Am F C and it was your heart on the line. Am F C I really xxxxxx it up this time, G didn't I, my dear? Am F C But it was not your fault but mine, Am F C and it was your heart on the line. Am F C I really xxxxxx it up this time, G didn't I, my dear? Am Didn't I, my dear?

5 ukulele chords used in "Little Lion Man" by Mumford & Sons: Am, C, F, Fmaj7 and G
If you’re uncomfortable swearing (or are singing around parents and/or more sensitive listeners) you can sing “I really messed it up this time, didn’t I my dear”
Original key is +5 or D minor, F, B flat, and C
This song nearly blew me kilt off. A great little song this be.
it’s easier to play and sound just as nice if you skip the Fmaj7.
i’m strumming in DDDUD for verses and just a down strum when necessary for choruses
am I the only one who heard this song from tonight alive?
If you wanna play the short melody at the end of each verse, I suggest the following:
Play a C chord for one interval (with whichever strumming pattern you chose) and instead of the second time playing the C chord do this:
A |——————–
E |——0————
C |——————–
G |–2——-0—2–
What I did was:
A |–3—3—-3-3-3—————–|
E |–0—0—-0-0-0—-0———–|
C |–0—0—-0-0-0—————–|
G |–0—0—-0-0-0-2—-0—2—|
You can also keep strumming while doing this lick (holding the C shape).
-5 capo on 2nd fret
Transpose it +5 to play in the right key. It’s a pretty easy tune.
Beautiful song! I love it! This is the first song I learned to play as a beginner.
sounds great, thanks 🙂
Dont be so mean! Someone who never made a mistake, never made anything. People make mistakes, so take a chill pill and take your anger out on your teddy bear. ANYWAY, great song 🙂
+5 is the right key
On the chorus, I just do single down strokes and it sounds better than the strumming pattern.( and its easier 😉 XD
achilles and patroclus
Still doesn’t sound right ://
Harder than i thought but i try o it
One the last C chord at the very end, I used an Am. I think it sounds really nice.
I feel like +2 sounds nice compared to others. It may not be the same but It’s quite pretty.
Is there a strum pattern
the clawhammer style works really well for this song and others like it. a word of warning the clawhammer takes a long time to learn if your not used to finger picking so be patient and practice. a website called ezfolk has some really good tutorials which is how i learned
